Budongo Primate Lodge

Situated well off the beaten track in the heart of the Budongo Forest, some 40km south of the main savannah areas of the reserve, this former research station has been converted into a simple but atmospheric small lodge.

Both the modest public areas and guest rooms are contained within simple tin-roofed structures, kitted out only with the basics.

Budongo Primate Lodge is somewhere which appeals mainly to specialist birders and easy-going travellers who have already visited chimpanzees at better established and serviced locations such as Kibale Forest.
